Your Words

Written for my love

I fell in love with the way you placed your words on paper

The way your thoughts flowed into the empty corners of my mind

I fell for you,

allowing your love to become the author of my life.

Your words- 

they put my demons to rest

encouraging me to be my best.

Forgiving my imperfections

causing us to form connections

deep down in my soul,

no longer swimming in the fish bowl.

your love, your light

bring me home

like the north star in the dead of night

Your words-

they help me overcome my fears,

embrace my tears,

when I can't have you near.

oh how I wish,

how I wish you were here

Author's Note

This is my first ever poem- I would love some feedback on it!

Connections are forged with deep emotions when it come to a boyfriend/girlfriend. You did a fine job for a first poem here.
